Abstract
A parking brake system for a vehicle, in particular for a motor vehicle, includes two control units, by means of which two actuators, which are designed to actuate respective wheel brakes, can be controlled. The control units are connected to a power source via separate lines, wherein exclusively one of the control units is connected to an operating device which is designed to transmit signals to the control unit for actuation of the wheel brakes. The control unit is designed to control at least one of the actuators, dependent on the signals for actuation of the wheel brakes.
